Before she came on board with the team, I had already worked with Mackenzie on a number of marketing projects which made her onboarding and familiarization with Visit Central Oregon and the tourism industry much easier. One of the reasons I hired Mackenzie was her dedication to her projects, which shows in the quality of everything she does. She is a fast learner, and from the beginning, Mackenzie was able to immerse herself in our organization and our industry, making her a knowledgeable and valuable part of our team. Because of this, I supported her promotion from Marketing Manager to Director of Marketing after her first year. Mackenzie as a self-starter who eagerly accepts responsibility for projects. She has consistently exceeded my expectations for productivity in her position with minimum supervision. Her experience, insight and drive continues to impress me. During my time managing her, she has taken on leadership opportunities for different projects with big success.

I predict great things for her and those who also see what I see and bring new opportunities her way!"
